Rock 'n Roll recommendations?

[phlogiston]

I'm looking for some recommendations as to rock 'n roll music, akin to the Hellacopters and Betty Blowtorch style of rock. Just good loud, simple, loud rock n' roll that you just gotta play loud.

Any suggestions?

Hair Of The Dog
Get any album of theirs you see (theres 3, Rise is the best, which Sydo will find out once I stop being a lazy bastard and send it to him, and the other 2 are great as well )

Ten, sorta like 80s Whitesnake, Babylon is their best, but everything except Far Beyond The World is really worth buying.

Andrew W.K. : I Get Wet, this is great, I recommend it to everyone, if you cant smile when you listen to this album, you are already dead, even if it is the same song 13 times

The Quill!!

Journey! No idea if they're like those bands you mentioned because I'm not familiar with their work, but Journey ROCKS! And if Steve Perry ain't one of the all-time great singers, then nobody is.

21 Guns and Jackyl are both excellent.

Jackyl sound exactly like AC/DC though, nothing original lol. But most excellent! Just raw bluesy hard rock with dirty vocals and sleazy lyrics. Tanya got me onto them by sending me She Loves My Cock, classic song!

21 Guns are just loud in your face dirty hard rock metal rock'n'roll stuff lol. There's also Talon, not so much in your face loud dirty hard rock though, more Dokken styled melodic hard rock.

You could also try Buckcherry. I don't like them that much but they are pretty raw loud in yor face rock & roll.

That's all I can think of as far as recent bands go. Of course there are about a million great rock & roll bands from the '80s

Starz

 

[Sydo]

Like Spawn said, Andrew WK and Hair Of The Dog both rock!

Also check out Union, Slash's Snakepit and Sammy Hagar.

[Blitzkrieg]

I dunno if they fit the genre, but if you haven't checked out 'Wolfsbane' already, I would advise you to do so.

 

[Spiff]

Everyone should have checked out Wolfsbane by now! One of the best rock bands of our time!

I've tried something from most of these bands, but they're still not quite what I'm looking for. What about suggestions tending towards the "punkier" style of rock. I think that's what I'm after.

And for those who care, here's some Betty:

I can listen to this song over and over and over again. Then I get bored with it and listen to something else, but then I come back and listen to it again, which is the important thing.

 

[Southy]

i dunno, what about The Living End?, or ahhhhh Rancid, try their Life won't wait album..you wanted punk din't ya?
